Sweet little sister
Who could resist her
Lovable nursery crime
Holding her daughter
Under the water
Playfully counting the time
Beautiful Sunday
Hoping that one day
She'll be the belle of the ball
Pretty in pigtails
Lashes & long nails
Cradle and baby and all
CHORUS:
But when the bough breaks
So it goes
Everything falls
November rockets
Dropped into pockets
Just enough time to retire
Hide in the playground
Burning the school down
Second encounter with fire
Freudian doctor
Says he can stop her
Follow my finger
But he is mistaken
She is awake and
Sending her saviour to sleep
Chorus x 2
Down will come baby, cradle & all x 3
Cradle & all
